Reposting my old post, many people are suggesting that if my goal is to move US than stay in MS. Moving to US is not my goal, I am asking what will be better for my career? Is a chance to move to US more important than Amazon offer which currently I hold? Is moving to Amazon and risking everything a bad idea? I want to do what is best for my career in long term, if it's moving to any other country then I am ready for that, but I do not want to move to other country just for the sake of moving out from India. Following was my old post : Haven't completed a year at Microsoft, have an offer from Amazon(L5). Amazon is giving around 30% hike. What will be better for my career, moving to Amazon or wait for 1 year to complete at Microsoft and apply for international transfer ? YOE: 8 TC: 35L Currently in CSEO(MSIT) org, so work quality is not very good.
The choice depends on personal situation and preference. Moving to US is always good for the career, the exposure u get in invaluable. However, is extremely hard on most folks, especially a little later in life when u have kids. Family, culture lifestyle are all different. U can plan to move here for a few years and then move back, most ppl however find it difficult to uproot the family. So, there is no straight answer, just choose based on ur personal situation. You anyways have to grind for a few years ago u can delay the decision on moving. If I were u and if my work at MSFT was good, I would've stayed back and honed my craft for a couple of years before moving. In my opinion, this isn't the time to go after compensation, provided it isn't too low.
Just now read it's CSEO u work for. That's the crappiest Org in MSFT period, just change groups or if that's a hassle just accept Amazon offer. Work is more important at this stage of career, don't worry about US.
Do you know how Amazon stock vesting works? What's your offer? Which org you are going in Amazon? We can't help with limited information you provided.
Man 35L is less. Switch to Azn if you wanna be in India else move US in Msft
